Systematic  Theology— Dr.  Sanders. 

In  this  department  the  purpose  is  to  have  each  student  read, 
during  his  course,  some  standard  work  on  Systematic  The¬ 
ology,  and  in  addition  to  this  read  some  authority  on  Theism. 

This  course  of  reading  will  be  made  the  subject  of  the  most 
thorough  examination  and  free  discussion,  and  will  be  supple¬ 
mented  by  every  available  means  which  are  likely  to  encourage 


TO 


Biddle  University. 


and  stimulate  the  student  in  his  search  for  truth,  and  in 
preparation  for  its  defence. 

Systematic  Theology  is  begun  in  the  second  term  of  the 
Junior  year  and  completed  in  the  Senior  year.  The  doctrines 
of  Theology  are  presented  didactically,  historically  and  polemi¬ 
cally.  The  order  of  topics  pursued  is :  The  nature,  forms  and 
sources  of  theology ;  the  being  of  God ;  Hisnature  and  attrib¬ 
utes ;  Trinity;  the  Divinity  of  Christ;  the  Holy  Spirit;  the 
decrees  of  God ;  creation ;  providence ;  miracles ;  the  origin, 
nature  and  primitive  state  of  man ;  the  covenant  with  Adam ; 
the  fall ;  sin ;  imputation ;  original  sin ;  inability ;  the  cove¬ 
nant  of  grace ;  the  person  of  Christ ;  His  offices ;  the  nature, 
necssity,  perfection  and  extent  of  atonement ;  His  kingdom; 
His  humiliation  and  exaltation ;  vocation  ;  regeneration  ;  faith  ; 
justification;  sanctification;  the  law  of  God;  eschatology;  the 
sacraments. 

Practical  Theology. 

Homiletics. — Prof.  Jones. — The  work  of  this  Department  is 
carried  on  throughout  the  Seminary  course.  In  the  Junior 
and  Middle  years,  a  text-book  on  the  “Preparation  and  Deliv¬ 
ery  of  Sermons,”  is  read.  This  is  supplemented  by  exercises 
in  the  analysis  of  Sermons,  and  preaching  before  the  Pro¬ 
fessors  and  students  of  the  University  weekly. 

In  the  Middle  and  Senior  Classes  much  attention  is  given 
to  the  preparation  and  critcism  of  Sermon  plans  and  extem¬ 
pore  preaching. 

Christian  Evidence. — Dr.  Hargrave. — By  means  of  text¬ 
books  and  discussions  the  student  is  aided  in  verifying  the 
Biblical  proofs  of  doctrine  and  Christian  truth  as  represented 
in  the  symbols  of  the  Church,  and  he  is  thus  trained  to  express 
with  facility  and  clearness  the  revealed  will  of  God. 

Pastoral  Theology. — The  treatment  of  this  subject  is  con¬ 
fined  to  the  third  year  of  the  course.  It  is  designed  that  each 
student  shall  become  thoroughly  acquainted  with  the  best 
method  of  applying  the  message  of  salvation  to  the  hearts 
and  lives  of  men.  Lectures  are  given,  accompanied  by  the 
use  of  text-books. 


BiddeE  University. 


ii 


The  course  includes  the  importance  of  ministerial  piety, 
proper  habits  of  study,  skill  and  ability  in  the  various  branches 
of  church  work,  the  pastor’s  duty  and  relation  to  the  various 
courtsof  the  church,  and  the  various  private  and  public  duties 
pertaining  to  his  office. 

Church  Government. — Dr.  Sanders. — Four  lectures  on  the 
general  subject  are  given  to  the  Junior  Class. 

In  the  Middle  Year  the  Form  of  Government  with  proof 
texts  is  taken  up  and  pursued  through  one  term,  and  a  minute 
comparison  with  other  forms  of  church  polity  is  made. 

In  the  Middle  and  Senior  years,  Dr.  Hodge’s  work,  “What 
is  Presbyterian  Eaw-f”  and  the  Book  of  Discipline  are  used  as 
text-books,  accompanied  by  lectures. 

Biblical  and  Ecclesiastical  History— Prof.  Jones. 

Since  sacred  history  is  of  vital  imporance  as  a  part  of  a 
thorough  Theological  Education,  the  subject  is  pursued 
through  the  entire  three  years’  course. 

Biblical  History  is  studied  by  the  Junior  Class  with  the 
English  version  of  the  Old  Testament  as  a  text-book,  and 
Smith’s  Old  Testament  History  as  a  guide,  and  is  taught  by 
lectures  and  constant  reference  to  the  typical  and  preparatory 
nature  of  the  Old  Testament.  The  connection  between  sacred 
and  profane  history  is  pointed  out  and  attention  given  to 
Archaeology,  Geography  and  Chronology. 

Ecclesiastical  History. — This  subject  is  taken  up  by  the 
Middle  Class  and  is  taught  by  lectures  with  text-book,  cov¬ 
ering  the  period  from  Aspostolic  times  to  the  Reformation — 
1 6th  Century. 

The  Senior  Class  continues  the  subject, from  the  Reforma¬ 
tion  to  the  present  time,  devoting  the  second  term  to  the  His¬ 
tory  of  the  Presbyterian  Church  in  the  United  States. 

During  each  year  a  carefully  prepared  thesis  having  for 
its  subject  some  leading  personage,  epoch,  or  phase,  etc.,  of 
sacred  history,  is  required  from  each  student. 


INFORMATION. 


Admission. 

This  school  is  open  to  young  men  of  all  denominations. 
Candidates  for  admission  must  produce  evidence  that  they 
are  members  in  good  and  regular  standing  in  some  evangelical 
Church ;  that  they  possess  competent  talent,  and  that  they  have 
been  regularly  graduated  at  some  College  or  University,  or 
in  some  way  they  have  received  an  equivalent  for  the  training 
of  a  College  course.  Applicants  for  admission  to  an  advance 
standing  must  present  a  dimission  from  some  other  Theologi¬ 
cal  Seminary,  or  be  prepared  for  examination  on  the  subjects 
which  have  been  pursued  by  the  class  which  they  desire  to 
enter. 

When  a  student  who  has  been  a  member  of  any  other  Theo¬ 
logical  school  seeks  admission  into  this,  he  must  produce  cer¬ 
tificates  of  good  standing  and  orderly  dismission  ere  he  can 
be  received. 


Exceptional  Cases. 

In  exceptional  cases  promising  young  men  who  have  not 
had  the  benefit  of  a  full  College  course  will  be  received  and 
will  be  allowed  to  pursue  an  eclectic  course. 

Period  of  Study. 

The  regular  course  of  study,  as  in  other  Seminaries  of  the 
Church,  covers  a  period  of  three  years. 

Practical  Work. 

The  practical  work  of  the  Ministry  is  joined  with  work  as 
the  Theological  students  have  opportunities  of  laboring  as 
supplies  in  the  neighboring  churches,  during  vacation  and  in 
term  time. 

With  the  facilities  at  hand  special  and  successful  efforts  are 


Biddle;  University.

made  to  aid  students  in  obtaining  vacation  employment  along 
the  lines  of  their  future  work  as  teachers  and  preachers  among 
the  people. 

Rules  and  Regulations. 

Except  in  a  few  particulars  the  students  of  the  School  of 
Theology  are  not  subject  to  the  rules  and  regulations  which 
govern  those  of  the  other  Schools  of  the  University. 

Roomy. 

The  rooms  in  McNamee  Hall,  so  far  as  is  necessary,  are 
reserved  for  Theological  students.  Each  of  these  rooms  is 
furnished  with  a  bedstead,  mattress,  pillows,  bureau,  wash- 
stand,  chairs,  looking-glass,  etc.,  and  is  heated  by  steam. 

Expenses. 

There  is  no  charge  for  tuition  or  room  rent. 

There  is  a  charge  of  $8.00  per  month  for  board  in  connec¬ 
tion  with  the  Boarding  Department,  where  all  the  students 
living  on  the  grounds  are  required  to  board.  The  fee  of  $8.00 
per  month  covers  also  expenses  of  fuel,  light  and  washing  of 
towels  and  bed  clothing. 

The  Examinations. 

The  Semi-Annual  Examinations  will  be  conducted  during 
the  third  week  in  December  and  the  last  week  in  May.  The 
examination  will  be  oral  and  written.  Each  student  is  re¬ 
quired  to  take  these  examinations,  and  if  by  sickness  or  ab¬ 
sence  one  fails  to  take  them,  he  must  submit  to  an  examination 
with  a  corresponding  class  in  a  subsequent  year.

from  misconduct,  or  infringements  of  the  Rules  and  Regula¬ 
tions  enter  in  and  modify  the  grading,  and  when  the  number 
of  demerits  reaches  25  in  any  one  term  the  delinquent  is  sub¬ 
ject  to  suspension.  Demerited  students  cannot  take  part  in 
public  exercises  unless  relieved  by  special  action  of  the  Faculty.

The  Preparatory  School  aims  to  prepare  the  student 
thoroughly  for  the  studies  of  either  course  of  the  School  of 
Arts.  The  Preparatory  English  Course  is  a  necessity,  as  the 
large  majority  of  the  students  coming  to  the  Institution  have 
not  had  the  opportunity  to  ground  themselves  in  the  common 
English  branches.  Upon  completing  the  studies  of  this  course 
the  student  is  prepared  to  teach  in  the  common  schools  of  the 
State,  as  well  as  to  enter  the  Freshman  Class.  A  certificate  will 
be  given  to  each  student  completing  this  course. 

All  applicants  for  admission  to  the  lowest  class  of  this  course 
must  be  at  least  twelve  years  of  age,  must  furnish  satisfactory 
testimonials  of  good  moral  character,  and  must  be  able  to  pass 
a  satisfactory  examination  ni  the  Fourth  Reader,  Primary 
Geography  and  Wentworth’s  Grammar  School  Arithmetic 
through  Decimals  and  Common  Fractions.  To  enter  a  higher 
class  the  applicant  must  pass  an  examination  in  the  studies  of 
the  class  next  below  it.

BIDDLE  UNIVERSITY  A.  &  M.  BUILDING — BEING  BUILT  BY  STUDENT  LABOR 


SCHOOL  OF  INDUSTRIES. 


J.  A.  Brown,  Assistant  Superintendent. 


All  the  students  in  the  Preparatory  Course  are  required  to 
take  some  trade,  and  report  every  day  for  work  in  the  Indus¬ 
trial  School. 

At  present  six  trades  are  being  taught — Carpentering,  Print¬ 
ing,  Bricklaying,  Plastering,  Tayloring,  Tailoring,  and  Shoe¬ 
making.  Each  student  is  allowed  to  have  his  choice  of  trades 
being  taught,  but  no  change  will  be  allowed  after  the  change 
is  once  made.  One-fourth  of  the  time  in  recitation  hours  is 
devoted  to  industrial  training. 

Wood  Work— J.  A.  Brown. 

Crapentry  and  Joining  are  taught  in  a  room  provided  with 
twelve  cabinet  benches,  each  of  which  is  fitted  up  with  a  set  of 
carpenter’s  tools. 

Students  are  taught  the  use  and  care  of  these  tools,  the  prin¬ 
ciples  of  wood  working — from  drawings  and  models — and 
have  also  such  practical  instruction  as  can  be  had  from  im¬ 
provements  and  repairs  of  the  building's  and  furniture  of  the 
University. 

Besides  doing  the  necessary  work  for  the  school  a  limited 
amount  of  work  is  done  for  outside  parties.  Two  professors’ 
houses  have  been  built  by  the  students,  also  a  boiler  house ;  and 
extensive  repairs  have  been  on  other  buildings. 

Printing  Office— William  E.  Hill,  Foreman. 

This  office  is  equipped  as  any  regular  printing  establishment 
would  be.  Besides  the  ordinary  office  furniture,  it  has  three 
printing  presses. 

In  this  office  the  Afro-American  Presbyterian  and  the  Biddle 
University  Record  are  set  up  and  printed,  and  job  work  is  done, 
thus  giving  the  students  actual  printing  office  instruction  and 
practice,  both  in  typesetting  and  presswork.  The  office  is 
equipped  for  doing  excellent  work,  and  the  instruction  is  thor¬

patching,  half-soling,  fitting,  lasting  and  putting  together  of

W.  H.  Stinson— Superintendent. 


This  department  includes  the  orderly  keeping  of  the  grounds, 
the  supervision  of  the  dormitories  and  public  buildings,  and 
all  that  pertains  to  the  immediate  management  of  the  students 
as  to  board  and  home  life. 

The  Superintendent  and  his  family  live  among  the  students

GENERAL  INFORHATION. 


The  School  Year  consists  of  one  session  of  two  terms,  com¬ 
mencing  on  Saturday  at  io  a.  m.,  before  the  third  Monday  in 
September,  and  closing  on  the  second  Wednesday  of  June. 
Students  wishing  to  enter 'should  make  early  application.  The 
best  interests  of  the  Institution  and  of  the  students  require 
that  he  report  himself  for  duty  promptly  at  the  opening  of 
each  term. 

Tuition. 

There  is  no  charge  for  tuition,  except  in  the  case  of  local 
students,  who  are  charged  $2.50  per  month. 

Literary  Societies. 

There  are  four  flourishing  Literary  Societies — the  Mattoon, 
the  Clariosophic,  the  Johnson  and  the  Douglass.  The  exer¬ 
cises  consist  of  composition  discussion  and  debate,  and  there  is 
a  School  City  connected  with  them.  These  societies  are  gov¬ 
erned  by  laws  enacted  by  themselves,  and  their  officers  are  also 
elected  by  themselves.  The  students  are  required  each  to 
become  a  member  of  one  of  these  societies  and  to  attend  upon 
the  exercises.  The  whole  is  under  the  supervision  of  the 
Faculty.

A  large  airy  room  on  the  first  floor  of  the  main  building  has 
been  set  apart  as  a  Library  and  a  similar  one  on  the  third 
floor  as  a  Reading  Room. 

The  former  contains  about  12,800  volumes  of  commentaries 
and  religious  literature,  and  also  a  variety  of  the  works  of 
standard  authors.  About  300  volumes  and  60  pamphlets  have 
been  added  during  the  year. 


48 


Biddle  University. 


The  latter  is  supplied  with  many  of  the  best  religious  and 
secular  weekly  and  daily  papers. 

The  students  have  daily  access  to  the  Library  and  Reading 
Room,  under  special  regulations. 

College  Y.  fl.  C.  A. 

A  College  branch  of  the  Y.  M.  C.  A.  is  in  successful  opera¬ 
tion,  with  a  membership  of  over  ioo.  It  is  earnestly  desired 
that  all  the  students  identify  themselves  with  this  noble  work. 

Pecuniary  Aid. 

Candidates  for  ministry  and  young  men  of  promise  will  re¬ 
ceive  such  aid  as  their  necessities  and  the  resources  at  command 
will  allow.  Friends  in  Scotland  have  established  a  fund  of 
$6,000,  the  interest  of  which  is  to  be  used  to  aid  young  men 
preparing  for  mission  work  in  Africa. 

Should  any  beneficiary  of  these  funds  marry  before  com¬ 
pleting  this  course  of  study,  thereupon  his  aid  will  be  forfeited, 
nor  will  any  one  be  aided  who  uses  tobacco  in  any  form. 

Location  and  Design  in  the  Establishment  of  the  Institution. 

The  University  is  located  at  Charlotte,  North  Carolina,  and 
is  named  in  memory  of  the  late  Major  Henry  J.  Biddle,  of 
Philadelphia,  whose  widow,  Mrs.  M.  D.  Biddle,  was  one  of  its 
most  liberal  supporters.  It  is  chartered  by  the  Legislature  of 
the  State,  and  is  under  the  auspices  of  the  Presbyterian  Church 
in  U.  S.  A. 

The  object  of  the  Institution  is  the  education  of  colored 
teachers,  preachers  and  leaders  for  their  race  in  other  walks 
of  life. 

It  stands  at  the  radiating  point  of  seven  railroads  in  the 
midst  of  a  dense  and  comparatively  intelligent  colored  popula¬ 
tion,  and  occupies  a  site  of  seventy  acres  in  the  suburbs  of 
the  city 

It  is  situated  in  the  heart  of  the  South  Atlantic  region,  which 
contains  the  two  synods  of  Atlantic  and  Catawba,  having  356 
colored  churches,  221  ministers,  scores  of  young  men  in  prepa- 


Biddre  University.

ration  for  the  ministry,  with  a  large  number  of  schools  and 
acadimies  under  their  care.  These  schools  and  churches  must 
be  furnished  with  intelligent  Christian  teachers  and  preachers, 
who  must  be  largely  educated  on  the  field,  and  in  contact  with 
the  people  among  whom  they  are  to  labor.  Such  a  training  is 
given  here  at  less  expense  than  it  could  be  elsewhere ;  the 
student  has  the  best  opportunity  for  a  Christian  education  to¬ 
gether  with  the  refining  influences  of  a  Christian  home,  and  he 
is  kept  at  the  same  time  in  contact  and  sympathy  with  the 
people.

scholastic  year,  unless  excused  by  the  proper  authority,  and  a 
scholarship  may  be  forfeited  by  any  violation  of  the  regulations 
for  the  government  of  the  students. 

Under  no  circumstances  whatever  will  more  than  one  schol¬
